Within the Quota (Ballet Suite) NFMC 2020-2024 Selection for 2 Pianos, 4 Hands Transcribed by Bolcom and Bennett 芭蕾 组曲 钢琴

科尔-波特唯一一次 "严肃 "的创作尝试是芭蕾舞剧配乐Within the Quota，当时达柳斯-米尔豪德（Darius Milhaud）建议波特作为他的La Création du Monde的配乐作曲家。这两首作品于 1923 年 10 月在香榭丽舍剧院首演，受到巴黎媒体的热烈欢迎。科尔-波特后来认为乐谱已经遗失。1970 年，该乐谱在耶鲁大学被发现，威廉-博尔科姆（William Bolcom）和理查德-罗德尼-贝内特（Richard Rodney Bennett）据此创作了这个双钢琴版本。这部芭蕾舞剧讲述了一个移民到纽约的人遇到了一个诱人的女继承人、一个踢踏舞者、一个艳舞女郎、一个牛仔和一个电影明星美女的故事。演出需要两份拷贝"

Within The Quota (Ballet Suite)

原文简介:
Cole Porter's only attempt at a “serious” composition came with the ballet score Within the Quota, when Darius Milhaud suggested Porter as a composer to pair with his La Création du monde. Both pieces were rapturously received by the Parisian press at the October 1923 premiere at the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées. Cole Porter later believed the score to be lost. In 1970 the score was discovered at Yale, from which William Bolcom and Richard Rodney Bennett created this two-piano version. The ballet is about an immigrant to New York who encounters a seductive heiress, a tap-dancer, a flapper, a cowboy, and a movie star beauty. Two copies needed for performance.
